The Story

Made 2 Measure ES-175 Single-Pickup Hollowbody Electric Guitar Vintage Sunburst

The Gibson ES-175 should easily land a spot on the "top-five" list of quintessential jazz boxes. First introduced to the world in 1949 with a single P-90 pickup, the guitar received upgrades over the years until it finally became the classic we know today, with humbucking pickups and the classic "zig-zag" tailpiece. Here is a gorgeous, masterfully crafted ES-175 with a single '57 Classic humbucker, built as part of the Made 2 Measure program in the Gibson Nashville factory. The guitar is built with hand-selected pieces of flame maple, and is classed up with gold hardware. This is the perfect instrument for any discerning Jazz guitar player.

Includes: Hardshell Case, Certificate of Authenticity
